Minnesota Vikings Tickets

One more year in the brutal cold of TCF Bank Stadium for the Vikes, who move into their brand new stadium in downtown Minneapolis in 2016. 2014 was a transitional year for the team in which they learned a lot about their future. They have a new starting quarterback in Teddy Bridgewater who took over early in the season. Bridgewater went 6-6 in 12 starts. Adrian Peterson is back after a year of legal troubles, a necessary return over the inconsistent play of Matt Asiata and Jerick McKinnon. Their biggest concern even before letting Greg Jennings walk in free agency is the wide receiver core, which lacks both talent and depth. Cordarelle Patterson will need to break out as he was supposed to last year and it’s a free for all after that. They drafted for value this spring, going mostly defensive. CB Trae Waynes and LB Eric Kendricks will bolster a defense that already ranked 14th overall and 7th in pass defense. Bridgewater’s talented, but he doesn’t have much to work with unless Peterson can carry the load on his own.
The Minnesota Vikings operate temporarily at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, on the campus of the University of Minnesota. The Vikes have one Super Bowl title, in 1969, four Super Bowl appearances (none since 1976), 18 division championships, and 27 playoff appearances all time. Their only two NFC North titles came in 2008 and 2009, but a late season run helped them earn a wild card berth in 2012. The Vikings are coached by Mike Zimmer, who enters his second season as coach with a young roster that has seen significant change in recent years. Bridgewater could be the key piece, however, as a consistent quarterback to build around is something the team hasn’t had since Daunte Culpepper. Minnesota plays in the Hall of Fame Game against Pittsburgh this summer, and in the regular season hosts Detroit, San Diego, Kansas City, St. Louis, Green Bay, Seattle, Chicago, and the NY Giants.
